Dehydration????

well about three months ago i was getting severe headaches, fatigue, when i became out of breath(when playing sports, laughing, or even playing my clarinet) my head would pound, i was constantly short of breath and for a few seconds everything would go black.( u know when sometakes a pic. or u look in the sun and u see those spots, well it was like there was tons of them and i couldn't see.)
I was home sick because of this and i was talking to my mom, she said something funny and i was laughing really hard, my face went numb, my hand curled in, and all of a sudden it was extremely difficult to beath, so her and my dad rushed me to the doctors, and on the way there i was able to breathe a little better but i then i noticed that my eyes hurt, well not really my eyes themselves but like whatever connects to them in ur head, and directly above and below. when i got there they said i was extremely dehydrated. a few weeks ago, every time i got in the shower if the shower was even...

hey. I think I know your feeling. i've gone a few days without drinking and stuff and you just feel majorly run down and its hard to breathe .. it stinks. I've never had to be taken to the doctor for it tho. Do you usally drink alot of fluids or just like a glass at mealtimes? I used to drink just at meals pretty much but now Im trying to get 1-2 liters of water a day. What I suggest is drinking powerade or gaterade. Its really good for hydreation and it also has minerals and b vitamins that giv eyou energy. i dont mean to sound like yer mom lol but you reallly need to start drinking more fluids. one of my friends got put in the hospital because she was dehydrated for like a week or more. i know how u feel, its like sometimes you dont feel like drinkin stuff, but you gotta. Im 15 and I think can relate to what your going through right now. Just hang in there and take care hon! :)

It sounds like you had a very very mild stroke.

The Rat

I am a mountain biker and have often had that problem, after long and hard rides. I did see those black dots and when they came I felt kind of disy and that I might pass out... My doctor also says its from being dehydrated... Also a part of my problem was that Drinking ice cold water isn't good because your body takes energy to heat it up. It has to heat it up to 96 degrees, which if the case is that its 100 degrees out side it can cause a heat stroke or something like that. So its always better to drink warm water when its hot out. Hope this helps you- you answer helped me out- Thanks!!!
